The engineering curriculum at Southeast is closely articulated with programs at the Missouri University of Science & Technology (formerly University of Missouri-Rolla). Rolla’s General Engineering Transfer Guide
For programs at the University of Missouri, students must first refer to the online undergraduate catalog for the curriculum of a particular program and then read the course descriptions to find the equivalent courses at Southeast Missouri State University.
